Fair Lawn High School

FLHS Engineering students competed at the TCNJ Junior/Senior Design Challenge. Learn more at the next club meeting.

The Counseling and Wellness Department along with the Multilingual Learners Department at Fair Lawn High School organized three college tours spanning from October to November. Junior and Senior Multilingual Learner students had the chance to explore Kean University, Ramapo College, and Bergen Community College. Admissions representatives warmly welcomed students with college merchandise, guiding them through campus tours led by university student representatives. Students got a taste of college life by attending lectures, dining in college cafeterias, and touring a dorm room and residence hall while classes were in session. During the tours, students gained valuable insights into the admissions process, financial aid opportunities, student activities, sports offerings, and college advising. They even had the opportunity to engage with college representatives, participating in application completion sessions for admission.

We owe a tremendous debt of gratitude to the veterans that came to speak to our US History class students! Shout out to our student musicians and the students and advisors (Mr. Alvarez and Mrs. Willis) of the Helping Hands Club!

The FLHS stage is now silent, but what a Fall show it was! "Peter and the Starcatcher," brilliantly performed by our talented cast and supported by its crew, sprinkled stardust and made us feel like kids again. Masques advisors Ms. Gormley and Mr. Downey did it again! Bravo!

On June 19th, select student leaders were invited to engage in a Juneteenth field trip. Students traveled to three different locations: the African Art Museum of the SMA, the Morris County Courthouse, and the Gethsemane Cemetery. Students actively learned about their community's history and cultivated a greater appreciation for African American culture.

Fair Lawn High School celebrated and commemorate Juneteenth with a day filled with focused workshops. Some of our highlights were a music concert, a Juneteenth museum hosted by the FLHS Bridges classroom, a Juneteenth escape room, a school wide art project, and a Juneteenth Walk-a-Thon where students took 1,865 steps for freedom. In addition, our childcare and selected Interact students visited 2 of our elementary schools to read aloud a book and donated Juneteenth books to all the elementary libraries.
